    This is a real thing.

    It can melt broken lines back together. This is however a last resort.

    Remember to airblow the card beforehand.

    Eh.. doubt your card will be at top performance if you bake it in the oven. You could always try. My bet is that you won't get it to work at all anymore.

    Edit: There must be a reason why companies are cooling their graphic cards, and not adding extra heat, there is also a fail-safe temperature where the graphic card shuts itself down or lowers it's performance if it's running too hot, if I'm not mistaken.

    Not so techy, just common sense here.

    It works. It melts the contacts just barely and lets them reseat (you obviously don't want it in their too long). It is hit and miss though, your results may vary. If your card is broken you may as well try it. I had a busted card that didn't work, we put it in a toaster oven (not the spring loaded crap) for about 5 minutes after it warmed up and it actually fixed the card, I'm still using it to this day.
